Kendall and Jamie Broderick are visiting a wilderness cabin with their father. After a day spent exploring, suddenly something is wrong. The weather and fog closes in around them, and the water of Sutter's Swamp seems to be working hard to keep them from getting back to their cabin.
They finally make it back, only to discover that they are alone. Their father is nowhere to be found. To make it worse, a ghostly voice continually echoes across the water, the voice of a long dead Native American warrior. Then suddenly he is in their cabin...!
This is the second full-length mystery of the Kendall and Jamie Broderick Mysteries. This series includes both full-length mysteries and groups of 15-minute solve-it mysteries where kids can match wits with Kendall and Jamie.
